SAN FRANCISCO, June 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The Gymboree Corporation (the "Company") today reported consolidated financial results for the first fiscal quarter ended May 2, 2015.

First Quarter Results (13-weeks ended May 2, 2015 versus 13-weeks ended May 3, 2014)

  • Net sales were $276.1 million, compared to $272.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2014;
  • Comparable sales (including online stores) were flat;
  • Gross profit was $105.4 million, or 38.2% of net sales, compared to $108.4 million, or 39.8% of net sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2014;
  • Adjusted gross profit was $107.1 million, or 38.8% of net sales, compared to $110.2 million, or 40.5% of net sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
  • SG&A expense was $104.7 million, or 37.9% of net sales, compared to $102.3 million, or 37.6% of net sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2014;
  • Adjusted SG&A expense was $101.1 million, or 36.6% of net sales, compared to $101.8 million, or 37.4% of net sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
  • Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net loss attributable to The Gymboree Corporation before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for other items as described below, was $15.6 million compared to $22.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014;
  • Adjusted EBITDA is estimated to be negatively impacted by approximately $6 million in the first quarter as a result of the west coast port slowdown; and
  • Net loss attributable to The Gymboree Corporation for the quarter was $23 million compared to $13.4 million for the same quarter of fiscal 2014.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted SG&A expense are not financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). For a description of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of these measures to GAAP measures, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below and Exhibit D of this press release.

Balance Sheet Highlights

  • As of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2015, there were $42.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the Company's $225 million asset-backed loan facility and approximately $90.8 million of undrawn availability after being reduced by letters of credit of $38.1 million.
  • Capital expenditures were $3.1 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2015.
  • Inventory balances at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2015 were $208.9 million, compared to $170.4 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2014. On a per square foot basis, inventory cost was up 23% over the first quarter of fiscal 2014.  Inventory units were up on a similar percentage basis. 
  • On May 5, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement to sell and lease-back its distribution center located in Dixon, California. Net proceeds received from the sale were $25.9 million.

Fiscal 2015 Business Outlook

The Company's fiscal 2015 outlook is based on the current economic environment trends, as well as management expectations for the remainder of the year.

For the full year, the Company continues to expect Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $95 million to $105 million, which includes the net impact to Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $10 million to $12 million resulting from the west coast port slowdown in the first half of the year. Based on this guidance, the Company expects to have sufficient liquidity during fiscal 2015 to service its debt and invest in the business to drive long-term growth.

Stores

During fiscal 2015, the Company continues to plan to open approximately 12 stores and expects to close approximately 30 to 40 stores.

Capital Expenditures

During fiscal 2015, the Company continues to anticipate spending approximately $25 million to $30 million for capital expenditures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company defines "Adjusted EBITDA" as net loss attributable to The Gymboree Corporation before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") adjusted for other items including, non-cash share-based compensation, loss on disposal/impairment of assets and sponsor management fees and expenses, as well as the impact of purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the Acquisition and other non-recurring or unusual items.  The Company is likely to exclude these items from Adjusted EBITDA in the future and may also exclude other similar items, the effect of which is uncertain but may be significant in amount.  The determination of the amounts that are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure but is considered an important supplemental measure of the Company's performance and is believed to be used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of similar retail companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP and the Company's computation of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from others in the industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to operating income or net income, as a measure of operating performance or cash flow, or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP (see Exhibit D for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss attributable to The Gymboree Corporation).

The live broadcast of the discussion of first quarter fiscal 2015 financial results and fiscal 2015 business outlook will be available to interested parties at 2:00 p.m. PT (5:00 p.m. ET) on Tuesday, June 9, 2015. To listen to the live broadcast over the internet, please log on to www.gymboree.com, click on "Company Information" at the bottom of the page; go to "Investor & Media" and then "Conference Calls & Webcasts." A replay of the call will be available two hours after the broadcast through midnight PT, June 23, 2015, at 855-859-2056, passcode 43206077.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

ADJUSTED EBITDA:






The Company defines "Adjusted EBITDA" as net income (loss) attributable to The Gymboree Corporation before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense/benefit, and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") adjusted for other items, including non-cash share-based compensation, loss on disposal/impairment of assets, sponsor management fees and expenses, as well as the impact of purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the acquisition of the Company by investment funds sponsored by Bain Capital Partners, LLC (the "Acquisition"), non-recurring and unusual items.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a performance measure under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), but is considered an important supplemental measure of the Company's performance and is believed to be used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of similar retail companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP and the Company's computation of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from others in the industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to operating income or net income, as a measure of operating performance or cash flow, or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP.

The table below provides a reconciliation of net loss attributable to The Gymboree Corporation to Adjusted EBITDA:
